	I've been settling. I met Luke ~~finally~~ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I don't mind. We ended up sharing a dream a bit ago. That was - enlightening, I suppose. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

> He and I have spoken on a number of things, though there were obviously some details that weren't my place to relay to you.

> I have a number of books on methods as well as several brochures and a number of resources from this world's equivalent of the holonet. I found a number of things about what to teach in correspondence with the physical aspects and I'm finding them rather enlightening. It bridges the gap from "attacked by assassin" to something more plausible here.

> Given the difference in experiences, and Luke, I doubt he would fault you for a desire to explore your friendship anew with patience and a lack of preconceptions on his side, though some factual details may still prove awkward. New setting calls for it.

> It's different for everyone, I'm sure, but I do know that I was quite thankful for Anakin's patience in allowing me time to catch up given that he's from a later date than I. He was also willing to respect my desires, whatever they be, and let things happen or not happen as they would. I can only imagine the same would be true of Luke.

> He doesn't. He's been very courteous, well, very Luke about it, to be honest. But I would have expected no less of him.

> Perhaps the most disconcerting thing isn't all of the distance between us, but the fact that he sounds and feels very like the Luke I know, but then when I glance at him I remember that he's not and it reminds me of everything else.

> Tuesday perhaps? There's a little cafe I found in the city that seems nice enough. Perhaps we could meet there?

We'll avoid telling him he's being predictable, all the same, so none of the Skywalker stubbornness decides to try a bout of unpredictability. > The idea of the future being a set concept is unsettling. > That sounds perfect.

	Well enough, I suppose. Quietly. I'm interested in this Halloween celebration some of the others seem so excited about - it seems as though ancient superstitions have become simply another excuse for a party. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	> A party with costumes. Do you hope to participate, or would you rather explore the more academic aspects and skip the actual party? > I think Anakin and I will likely skip. People from our universe, from those movies and such, are free reign for costumes. It's a little unsettling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am sorry. I should have texted you as well. Very well, though confusing. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I suppose it's good that this place is keeping us both so busy. And I'm thrilled to hear it's going well. As for the confusing aspect, perhaps you just need some time for things to become more clear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're probably right. I... Does it sound odd that right now I think I want to hug you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No, nor do I. Just some days... I guess it is not odd, but sometimes, I truly am more glad you are here. If nothing else ever makes it so, I am grateful to this place for letting me know you, Mother. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
